Wow, I don't know. But nightmares are a problem, I suspect they can encourage daytime anxiety- at least that how it was for me. I also developed a severe dread of sleep while experiencing them. When I had developed a high tolerance to clonazapam, which I was using for sleep, I entered a phase of really ghastly, violent nightmares. Amazingly, they vanished after I tapered off the clonazapam. What I wonder now is if some sort of withdrawal related phenomena was causing rebound anxiety and nightmares late in the night? Pure speculation- but I didn't have a nightly nightmare problem either before clonazappam trouble, nor after I went off of it.
